I find that people have a hard time understanding what am about b/c I'm an outlier & don't share the same perspective on life as the majority of my peers (guys under 30 living in a big city).

"I'm a serious person": that means I'm on time for appointments, get the task done on time (I rarely procrastinate), don't waste people's time, treat everyone with respect, I'm not a slob (I'm organized & clean up after myself), I don't sleep through meetings/lectures, I don't waste money (I'm not impulsive), I'm pretty much a square (don't drink/smoke or do drugs, EVER), I eat clean & exercise regularly, I always floss, lol....basically, "Type A" personality shyt.

"I don't take life that serious": that means I'm atheist so I don't suck off Jesus (lol), I don't care about marriage/starting a family, I don't plan fun time (folks take this seriously but I just let it happen), I don't care much about holidays/birthdays (I'm not a celebratory nigga), I don't care much about friendships (yeah, I'm hella introverted), I don't cry my eyes out when someone dies, I don't worship celebrities/athletes, I've always been single & never cared about dating, I don't care about getting rich, I'm not materialistic (don't care about brands/car models), I dress for comfort not to impress (my casual outfit is basketball shorts/sandals), I have no issues squashing beef as long as it's mutual, I'm not quick to post "RIP" when some disaster strikes, I don't want to live past 75 (I can't be a do nothing retiree), I've a receding hair line but it doesn't bother me (I've no issues rocking a buzzed hair look unlike my peers), I live w/ the results after I put in the work (you won't find me dwelling over an outcome although I might break a window the moment I find out, I'm human)......basically I give a fuck but then I don't give a fuck.
